In Jim Harbaugh's first season, Michigan is heading into the final week with a shot a Big Ten East division title. And that's after the Wolverines improved to 4-0 on the road in conference play with Saturday's 28-16 win at Penn State.
Jake Rudock became the first Michigan quarterback to pass for at least 250 yards in three straight games, and the Wolverines' defense returned to form, tightening up when the Nittany Lions reached the red zone.
Next up is Ohio State. Michigan will need to beat the Buckeyes and hope Penn State knocks off Michigan State later in the day.
